Multi-zone playback with multi-source

MULTI ZONE MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM

•When the outputs of the MULTI ZONE PRE OUT terminals are wired and connected to integrated amplifiers installed in other rooms, different sources can be played in rooms other than the main room in which this unit and the playback devices are installed. (Refer to ANOTHER ROOM on the diagram below.)

•MULTI ZONE SPEAKER OUT can be used when “Multi” is selected at System Setup Menu “Power Amp Assignment”. In this case, Surround Back Speaker OUT cannot be used for MAIN ROOM. (See page 18.)

•When a sold separately room-to-room remote control unit (DENON RC-616, 617 or 618) is wired and connected between the main room and another room, the remote-controllable devices in the main room can be controlled from another room using the remote control unit.

To control playback devices other than the ones above, either use that device’s remote control unit or preset a separately sold programmable remote control unit.

NOTES:

•For the AUDIO output, use high quality pin-plug cords and wire in such a way that there is no humming or noise.

•For instructions on installation and operation of separately sold devices, refer to the devices’ operating instructions.
